(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, DEC 01 - Joe Biden and the Democratic party are preparing to revolutionize the primaries for the 2024 presidential elections by making them start no longer from Iowa, as has been the case for half a century, but from South Carolina on February 6, followed by Nevada and New Hampshire the following week (February 13), then by Georgia (February 20) and Michigan (February 27).
The US media write it.
The proposal, put forward by Biden himself, reflects his political trajectory in 2020, when he finished fourth in Iowa and fifth in New Hampshire (both white-majority states), turning his campaign around in South Carolina (where there is a large population African-American), before continuing its winning march in Nevada, Georgia and Michigan.
A proposal that aims to give African Americans and other minorities, the true backbone of the party, more voice in the process of selecting the 'nominee' from the outset, as explained by the president in a letter to the dem management.
